Description RETRIEVAL will take our audience on a weaving journey deep into the stack of the National Library. It will be an expedition into our collective past. A cyclical journey of deposit and retrieval ensues - of stories past and stories to come. Whose voices do we revere? Whose stories do we listen to? Why do we record and archive our past if we do not learn from it? The stack is the keeper of our past - it is a maze of the stories of humanity. Stories of the mundane and of great profundity are deposited there hoping one day to be retrieved - to be read - to be heard - to be of use - to make a difference.
